Markets Monday
Analyzing the past and future of the tech market in Markets Monday.
Last week
Looking at the week behind for the tech market.
I might decide on a view such as 5 days prior using Google Finance. For example, this shows the relative bounds and can be contrasted with a 5 year view.


This week
Looking at the week ahead for the tech market.
I might decide on a view from Yahoo Finance or similar. For example, this is a view of intraday in Technology which usually gets around a dozen or so interesting companies.


Generally, I will experiment on Monday with what I think might matter in the market. For example, today we heard from Apple WWDC, and while not an explicitly investor oriented event, it is fascinating to hear what is said and what is not said.
For example, here are a few APPL takes I’ll likely expand upon and summarize tomorrow on Hot Takes Tuesday.
Jay Cuthrell: "We have reached peak Festivus A.I. #WWDC24" - cuthrell.com is Jay's Mastodon instance
We have reached peak Festivus A.I. #WWDC24
Jay Cuthrell: "Apple Intelligence on board is an overt oppositio…" - cuthrell.com is Jay's Mastodon instance
Apple Intelligence on board is an overt opposition alternative narrative to the venture capital funded insistence of "send your data to the A.I. cloud" as the only option in the market. #WWDC24
Jay Cuthrell: "iPhone Mirroring is an acceptable replacement for…" - cuthrell.com is Jay's Mastodon instance
iPhone Mirroring is an acceptable replacement for the jet packs we were promised. #WWDC24
Jay Cuthrell: "Nice. Safari team woke up this morning to talk ab…" - cuthrell.com is Jay's Mastodon instance
Nice. Safari team woke up this morning to talk about privacy and chose violence. #WWDC24
